Reborn to Outshine My Ex and His White Moonlight novel Chapter 872

Chapter 872: Chapter 872: Taking Action

It’s definitely not possible they’ll keep it for themselves.

So Gong Yao and Fu Xiuzhu must have someone else to deal with.

Lin Zhiyi curiously looked at Gong Chen: "Who do you think it is?"

Gong Chen was deep in thought, then sneered.

"Interesting."

"What’s up?" Lin Zhiyi asked.

"Nothing, just wait and see, the real show is yet to come."

After speaking, Gong Chen turned his attention back to the phone.

"Captain Xing, I think they’ll probably take action soon."

"Alright, I’ll keep an eye on things, you guys be careful too." Captain Xing advised.

"Okay."

Gong Chen hung up the phone.

Lin Zhiyi was feeling uneasy, not knowing why, she always felt like this matter wasn’t so simple.

"Third Young Master, I’m a bit scared, with Gong Yao fighting a desperate battle, would he try to pull some tricks somewhere?"

Gong Yao didn’t learn the old man’s wisdom, but he mastered the old man’s deviousness completely.

What is there that he still wouldn’t dare to do? 𝑓𝘳𝑒𝑒𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝑚

Gong Chen said, "We can’t overreact right now, otherwise we’ll easily get discovered. Don’t worry too much, you and I, we’re somewhat public figures, already controversial, it’s hard for them to make a move now."

Hearing this, Lin Zhiyi sighed in relief.

They had already ruined so many of their plans, they probably wouldn’t bother her again.

"Then let’s just live as usual for the next couple of days."

"Okay."

...

A week passed like this.

Everything remained calm and quiet.

Lin Zhiyi’s vigilance was gradually relaxing.

Today, she just had to accompany Xingxing for a routine check-up.

Before leaving, Gong Chen received a call from Captain Xing.

"Third Young Master, it has started, although the guy who’s supposed to meet said the old man is also present."

Gong Chen hesitated, looking at Lin Zhiyi.

Lin Zhiyi motioned him to hurry up and go.

Gong Chen replied, "I got it, I’m heading there now."

After hanging up the phone, Lin Zhiyi took a deep breath and held onto Gong Chen’s hand.

"Third Young Master, be careful, promise me nothing will happen."

"I promise you, I guarantee it."

Gong Chen gently kissed Lin Zhiyi’s forehead.

Lin Zhiyi helped him straighten his collar.

Gong Chen glanced down, gave a faint smile, and turned to leave.

After he left, Xingxing came out with a small backpack.

"Where’s Dad?"

"He has something to do, but Aunt Liao Yi said she’d like to accompany you, how about that for our girls’ day?" Lin Zhiyi smiled at Xingxing.

Xingxing sensibly nodded: "Alright then."

At the hospital.

Liao Yi had been waiting for a while.

"I came over as soon as I got your message, and it’s good because I’ve been almost driven crazy these past few days."

"What’s up? Didn’t you say you were going to retreat and draw comics with all that money?"

Lin Zhiyi joked while holding Xingxing’s hand.

Liao Yi spoke as they walked: "Ever since I withdrew my shares, the restaurant’s sales plummeted, and suddenly there were a lot of complaint posts online."

"Huh? What happened?" Lin Zhiyi asked.

"They were just absentee owners and liked to hire relatives to work at the restaurant, so everyone acted up because of the nepotism, afraid to do more than the minimum. The restaurant’s stuff got dusty without maintenance, even when dirty they didn’t bother to clean it. It was a hot spot restaurant, but it provided such a poor experience, who would want to keep spending money there? Not to mention, in the summer, they still serve the winter menu items and drinks."

Liao Yi looked pleased.

Lin Zhiyi said, "Did they ask you to come back to help?"

"Yeah, but I’m not going back, I’m never doing business again after this." Liao Yi angrily said.

Lin Zhiyi advised, "Liao Yi, we can all see you’re actually good at running a business, don’t give up on what you want to do because of others."

Liao Yi was stunned for a moment.

Li Huan just chuckled, "It’s futile, the Third Young Master’s car is modified. If there were any monitoring devices, it would have alerted long ago."

"Huh?"

Lin Zhiyi thought she was one step ahead of Gong Chen.

Unexpectedly...

Li Huan comforted, "Since the Third Young Master didn’t get rid of it, it’s probably to reassure you."

Lin Zhiyi pouted, "Where are they going? Wasn’t the Bai Family making trades at the port before?"

"The port’s authority has already been taken back by the Third Young Master. Gong Yao wouldn’t dare to provoke a tiger. So, he must choose a more reliable and safe method." Li Huan explained.

"So this is..."

"Gong Family’s private airfield, he’s planning to make the Third Young Master clean up his mess."

Li Huan pointed to a large area on the map.

Lin Zhiyi suddenly remembered, using the Gong Family’s private plane required permission from both the old man and Gong Chen.

No wonder Gong Yao had to bring the old man along.

Lin Zhiyi clutched her phone tightly, silently praying for everything to go smoothly.

"Mom, come on."

Xingxing waved her hand from the small garden ahead.

Lin Zhiyi looked up, "Be careful."

Li Huan checked the time, "I’ll go up and watch the test results, you enjoy some fresh air. I’ll call you later."

"Alright."

Lin Zhiyi and Liao Yi followed Xingxing’s lead.

Xingxing played on the swing in the children’s area, while Liao Yi soon couldn’t resist joining in on the fun next to her.

Sitting on a bench, Lin Zhiyi watched them, her lips curling into a smile.

But worry over Gong Chen’s situation still lingered, sapping her energy.

She didn’t even notice when someone sat down beside her.

"I really didn’t expect your kid to be so big already."

"..."

Upon hearing the voice, Lin Zhiyi stiffened, almost dropping her phone.
